Risk of arterial thromboembolism, bleeding and mortality in atrial fibrillation patients with comorbid cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSION: In AF patients, the presence of cancer is associated with a similar risk of TE and an increased risk of bleeding and all-cause death.PMID:37414144 | DOI:10.1016/j.hjc.2023.06.005

Cancers, Vol. 15, Pages 3503: The Risk of Ischemic and Hemorrhagic Stroke in Head and Neck Cancer: A Longitudinal Cohort Study
u Kim Several studies have shown that head and neck cancer is associated with an increased risk of stroke incidence. However, investigations of the association between the two diseases based on a matching cohort dataset are still limited. Therefore, we identified the incidence and risk of stroke in patients with head and neck cancer using a nationwide population-based cohort dataset. A total of 5248 individuals without cancer and 1312 with cancer were enrolled from the dataset after a 4:1 propensity score matching. We found that the incidence of overall stroke (per 1000 person years) was 19.29 for those with head and n...

Estimating the Cost of Delivering Tobacco Cessation Intervention Package at Non-Communicable Disease Clinics in Two Districts of North India
CONCLUSION: The development costs of the intervention package accounted for the majority proportion of the total cost. Of the total unit cost of implementation, the telephonic follow-up, human resources, and capital resources were the major contributory components.IMPLICATIONS: The current study aims to fill gaps by estimating the unit-level health systems cost of a culturally sensitive, disease-specific, and patient-centric tobacco cessation intervention package delivered at the outpatient settings of NCD clinics at the secondary level hospital, which represents a major link in the health care system of India. Findings fr...

Risk of intracranial hemorrhage with direct oral anticoagulation versus low molecular weight heparin in the treatment of brain tumor-associated venous thromboembolism: A meta-analysis
Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are effective in treating cancer-related thrombosis and are superior to low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) in terms of efficacy. The effects of DOACs or LMWH on intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) remain uncertain in individuals with brain tumors. We conducted a meta-analysis to compare the frequency of ICH in individuals with brain tumors treated with DOACs or LMWH.

A Comparative Study of Ultrasmall Calcium Carbonate Nanoparticles for Targeting and Imaging Atherosclerotic Plaque
ACS Nano. 2023 Jul 3. doi: 10.1021/acsnano.3c03523. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAtherosclerosis is a complex disease that can lead to life-threatening events, such as myocardial infarction and ischemic stroke. Despite the severity of this disease, diagnosing plaque vulnerability remains challenging due to the lack of effective diagnostic tools. Conventional diagnostic protocols lack specificity and fail to predict the type of atherosclerotic lesion and the risk of plaque rupture. To address this issue, technologies are emerging, such as noninvasive medical imaging of atherosclerotic plaque with customized nanotechnologic...

Stroke death in patients receiving radiation for head and neck cancer in the modern era
CONCLUSIONS: While radiotherapy for head and neck cancer increases the hazard of stroke death, this is reduced in the modern era and remains a very small absolute risk.PMID:37397363 | PMC:PMC10313411 | DOI:10.3389/fonc.2023.1111764

Occam ’s Razor Versus Hickam’s Dictum in a Presentation of STEMI
A 79-year-old female presented with an inferolateral STEMI on a background of a recent multi-territorial stroke, hypertension, hypercholesterolaemia, and prior thyroidectomy for thyroid cancer. Percutaneous intervention involved a drug-eluting balloon to the culprit oblique marginal artery and medically managed calcified 80% ostial right coronary artery (RCA). New paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) was noted. Transthoracic echocardiogram revealed a 13x7 mm mobile aortic valve mass with mild regurgitation.

Trends in the incidence and prevalence of dysphagia requiring medical attention among adults in South Korea, 2006 –2016: A nationwide population study
by SuYeon Kwon, Seungwoo Cha, Junsik Kim, Kyungdo Han, Nam-Jong Paik, Won-Seok Kim The prevalence of dysphagia is increasing, resulting in socioeconomic burden, but previous reports have only been based on a limited populations. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the nationwide incidence and prevalence of dysphagia requiring medical attention to provide adequate information for healthcare planning and resource allocation. In this nationwide retrospective cohort study, the data of adults aged ≥20 years recorded from 2006 to 2016 were sourced from the Korean National Health Insurance Service database. Medical claim codes ...

A Smartphone-Delivered Program (Anathema) to Promote the Sexual Health of Older Adults, Colorectal Cancer Survivors, and Stroke Survivors: Protocol for a Feasibility Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial
CONCLUSIONS: The study results will inform the refinement and scale-up of Anathema. Anathema's wider-scale implementation can potentially promote the sexual health of largely neglected user groups such as older adults, colorectal cancer survivors, and stroke survivors.INTERNATIONAL REGISTERED REPORT IDENTIFIER (IRRID): DERR1-10.2196/46734.PMID:37368469 | DOI:10.2196/46734
